Biography

Rich Wyatt has been racing boats for 25 years. Hailing from Pittsburgh, Rich is involved in transportation and software.

A professional racer since the age of 18, Rich has been a dominant figure on the powerboat racing circuit for the duration of his career. After holding a spot as a first-place racer in the Super Vee Class, Rich has been known to navigate some of the most challenging routes at speeds other racers would never attempt.

Having raced the same boat in the Unlimited class for several seasons, Rich made the switch to Class 1 in 2022, coming in second in his debut race with Driver, Marc Granet. The speed of the 51' Mystic impressed other teams.

In early 2023, Rich announced he was signing Hugh Fuller, with whom he had notable success in the Unlimited class. It is going to be interesting to watch how the boat performs on the class-standard Mercury Racing 1100Rs.
